Dr. Suess Literacy and Arts Fair




A reflection of a new PC's experience with his first one-time event:

I really had a great time participating in the Dr. Seuss Literacy Day event. I didn’t know what to expect as I went into this because I had never done a one-time event, but I was really pleased with how it went. There were plenty of volunteers that were really excited to help. I feel like the enthusiasm from the other volunteers made the event even better. I think we had around 25 kids show up and participate. I was expecting more, but we had no idea specifically how many were going to show up. I think the activities were well planned by the people on the program board, and I’m not just saying that because I was one of those people. The activities were creative and I feel like the kids that could comprehend them got a lot out of it. I say that because most of the kids I remember were very young. The adults with them seemed to have a good time with the activities too. All in all, I believe the program was successful, I just wish more kids that were old enough to do the activities would have shown up.
